CanadaThe room and bathrooms were super clean and the staff is really exceptional. There's also a pub right downstairs which is good if you want to drink "nearby" your hotel. The price is OK.
PortugalHave good connection. Buses run from infront of the street. Kitchen and washing facilities. Free house keeping. Clean place. Friendly staffs.
Sri LankaWe got the room on the ground floor which is good as we have two big luggages which we wouldn't want to climb any stairs. If you are travelling with the elderly and special needs persons, this hotel is quite convenient if you take a room downstairs. I would recommend to take the breakfast set if you dont want to search for food early in the moring. The breakfast will be sent to your room the night before. The breakfast stuff given is enough for me and my partner which lasted us until lunch and value for money, Toiletreis provided is good. Ample toilet papers given. There is a common kitchen area with washing and dryer machines located upstairs. The place is very near the bus stop if you are a budget traveller but a bit far off from the subway so you need to take a bus to/from there. Nearest Subway is Elephant & Castle.
